I am so glad to see someone addressing this topic. The examples of scripture you shared are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the importance of showing God our love for Him through our actions. Christ clearly taught that the way we truly show our love for God is through our obedience, which means our actions mean much more than our words.
